I'm exactly the same, but I started up my own computer repair business. It doesn't matter if you're qualified or not because if you fix the problem and make money everyone's happy. Start advertising your services and if you keep doing a good job word of mouth will get you more and more customers. Keep up the hard work and hopefully you'll be able to get tax registered and continue to grow. Just go for it.

Take it in to the place you bought it and have them add another GB or memory. Most people should not open up their computer case and tinker around in there. You really have to understand what you are doing in there. So, get someone that is really a computer person to upgrade it for you.

You need to know what type of memory you currently have now. Good to start, all programs, Accessories, systems tools, then system information. That should tell you what you have currently. You also must know how many bays or slots you have to buy new ones. Usually you have two.
